A little rain can't stop our prayers for the city! |
The
week after we returned from our Home Assignment, we joined with our church
family in celebrating our first anniversary of public ministry. Our first birthday as a church! Beginning with a time of prayer overlooking
the city on Saturday the 5th, the celebration continued through the day on
Sunday, with a special time of worship, communion (served by IBC General
Secretary Dr. Jimmy Martin and Rev. Carsten Lotz, pastor of ICF Oberursel), followed by a fellowship meal
complete with birthday cake!

Our birthday week was filled with reconnecting with the church's LIFE Groups, distribution of new church brochures in hotels and at the University, and was capped with a special visit by Dr. Gene Selander, the director of Converge Worldwide's "A2:5" Ministry. Gene visited with LIFE Groups, shared at a Men's breakfast and filled the pulpit on Sunday the 13th. The highlight of the week was our second baptism service that evening!
